The steel is heat treated and cooled to achieve a Rockwell of 57-58, and the three-step, 15° Elite edge is hand stropped on a cloth wheel, creating the sharpest possible cutting surface on an edged tool.

We are so happy with our Messermeister knives, like we have been for more than 35 years being a customer. The quality and service are unmatched. And we love the styling of the knife block; can't find anything that elegant looking anywhere else.

Love Messermeister knives. I would highly recommend them.

These knives are just okay. They aren't as sharp as I had hoped they would be. In fact, they will not slice a tomato. Too bad I am unable to exchange them.

I bought a few Messermeister Meridian Elite knifes, they are so sharp and great to handle. It feels wonderful to hold in my hand, the weight of it makes it easy to use. The three piece starter kit was a really good buy, I can't believe I actually bought it. I only wanted to get a couple of knives but after I did some research on the brand name and did some window shopping, I wanted to get a few more. The 8 inch chef knife I haven't used because I'm a little intimidated by it as I've already cut myself a couple of times with the paring knife. Be very careful, they are extremely sharp. I have my knives for life.

Very very nice!

I like the knives, I have some Messermeister meridian already, so I know these are quality. I took one star off because the shipment arrived with the knives bouncing around in the package, the sheath was off on one of the knives, and I'm concerned about what damage might have occurred in transit. When ordering something of this quality and price, it is very disappointing to have packaging that is so poor. Packaging needs to be developed with the understanding that sales will come online and shipment is necessary to consumers. This packaging reflects poor planning, poor consumer insight, and poor execution. Get it together Messermeister!

after trying different brands of knives , finally got this messermeister meridian starter set that meets and exceed our expectations . My husband love using this knife . Very sharp and have a good grip in your hand. He wants me get himThe slicer next time. The price is a bit high but I think it's worth of the investment specially if you like cooking . Our family prefer eating home than dining out :-)

We have been using the knives for about four weeks now. The knives are a heavy duty quality knife that holds it;s edge. We keep the knives sharp by using a steel upon every use, as directed by the factory. I think it's a fantastic knife for the price....why pay more?

I chose these knives at first because a friend recommended German knives. I had never owned really good knives and I thought these looked good in the pictures. When I received them they were so great to look at I displayed them on my counter and now I won't hide them away. They are lovely to use and easy to take care of. A truly nice set of knives and a pleasure to own. Sincerely, Michele
